Hi guys, im try to disable the camera sound. But I can't move the .prop file to /data with Astro, even tried with using desktop to explore.

How you guys move files into /data folder?

Use ROOT EXPLORER to make changes to system files . BEWARE and be careful using it as small mistake can freeze your phone. If you plan to make any changes eg to the build.prop file - make sure you do abackup first

to change the lockscreen wallpaper;
1. go to your gallery.
2. select the folder containing the picture that you want.
3. touch the picture and you will see a menu saying; "Set as".
4. select that menu.
5. you will be presented with a pop-up menu;
a) Contact icon
b) Home screen wallpaper
c) Lock screen wallpaper
d) QuickPic Wallpaper (in my case since I installed QuickPic)
6. select the one that said; "Lock screen wallpaper".
7. That's it. You are done.
8. Press the power  button to off your phone. Wait for a few seconds, press it back ON. You will see the new lockscreen wallpaper.

please try and post feedbacks/comments.

regards,
morisa

Hi morisa, thanks for the suggestion. The problem is when I did that, I can't see or find any of my pics in each folder unsure.gif ....I'm thinking of reflashing mine sgs2 or roll back.

Hi ellebasi,
Are you sure you have pictures inside your phone. Why don't you try snap a picture and open your gallery after that. This is done just to confirm about the picture availability.

morisa

Yes there are pictures in my gallery/phone. I can see the pictures in gallery normally. The problem occur only when I try to change the lock screen wallpaper.

uncle benny, thanks for your prompt answer.. 1st thing I also think this symptom is cause by ADfree.. then I try to remove the application.. then I install back once you confirm that this app can remove the annoying Ads.. after I re-install back.. the same problem still occur.. is there any 'setting' need to play around to really remove those Ads.. when I open ADfree.. nothing much button to click... argghhh... rclxub.gif

I've just use one of the default font available inside the phone... Go Setting -> Display -> Screen Display -> Font style and choose Choco cooky

This is what happened to the phone that RViN bought from me.
Brought in back to supplier and they said it's "out of focus" and they replaced 1 unit for him
after 1 week.
Now the unit he has got a dead pixel sweat.gif
*
Yeaps finally got it replaced by the importer after a couple rounds of quick fire sessions.

Apparently they only replace it once so if you have a defective unit the 2nd time around you are out of luck. What nonsense!

But checked thoroughly the unit I took so very happy and cooled down a lot now smile.gif, I think this will be my last Samsung phone though, the QC on this phone sucks despite it being their top end phone!. Thanks for the help Mike, sure its not your fault but must be a little careful next time. Check the stock they give you as damn these importers can be sneaky!

Also apparently the dead pixel issue is quite common, you can check from the diagnostic menu *#0*#

Very unlikely. CyanogenMOD has been developing roms for countless smartphones and is all free. Just following their nightly builds will drive you insane keeping up/testing  with it. If you like their work, they will appreciate a donation for their efforts

Samsung now realize the potential of the growing users who wish to push their smartphones higher up to another level beyond the default limits. HTC recently had announced their agreement to unlock the bootloaders but all are still waiting for their date. Sony Ericsson had already done that with their Xperia series.

Well even in this thread and several other threads, I see many new users who in their first entry into Android expressing their wishes and showing intentions to root, flash rom  etc even though they are still noobs. I have received many PM from such users ( probably they are shy to post in forums  ) asking me to guide them or explain certain Android terminologies. Some are so noob that questions like - how to format SD card, how to enable mass storage , how to install apk files, how to push adb files, how to use terminal etc are asked

Apparently i'm one of those noob who PM uncle Benny previously , but frankly, his precious effort in solving my problem is much appreciated. If its not him who guide me along the way into the android world , i wouldn't even know what does "flash" means tongue.gif

It is all about luck. My desire screen failed on me thrice in one month (liight leakage, then again light leakage and finally dead pixel), sold it off for good. SIS is good in customer service but the part was reconditioned. How come a new LCD got dead pixel on my last visit?

it's not our beloved samsung problem...it's only it's camera limitation...if you want more macro please and please use proper instrument eg DSLR or point and shoot digital camera..like the other guys said ...

QUOTE(Hianz @ Jun 7 2011, 02:52 PM)
can your camera focus on far object? if it can then this could be the object too near to focus..
different camera will have different focus distance..
you may want to move backward a litlle bit when try to focus the near object..
or is there macro mode on sgs2?? sorry i dun know as i dun have one..
*
just move backward and try focus the near object...u can always zoom it for what reason u want as it is 8MP....

please read this if you want further understanding.....
